    Not sure what it is but I'm sure its an acropora of some sort. Hopefully it will survive. I rescued this piece and a few small ones I glued to frag disks.

    Thanks VA. The tank I got it from was hideous. I'm hoping it recovers.

    Kinda hard to tell from the picture. Looks like it has been fragged quite a bit.
    It looks smooth, almost velvety. I don't see any polyps. Could it be Distichopora i.e. lace coral?
